Personal Questions

If you were a billionaire, where would you live?

I think I'd stay where I am now but maybe with all that money I'd change. I do sometimes think I'd like to have a house in the southern hemisphere so I could go there during the hottest part of our summer. Maybe I might end up with houses all around the world: London, Scotland, Alaska. Maybe I'd buy a mountain and build houses at different elevations, so I could have warmer and cooler weather on a whim. One place I'd not move is that pencil-think skyscraper in New York that looks over Central Park, which looks insanely scary to me.

Where I am. I like my house.

At the east coast of South Africa, have Mom there with a full time carer. 😊

[Leah]

Live in a small house, spend the rest fixing up different cities.

I'd find an island with a volcano that I could use for geothermal power and then construct my underground lair, while posing as a wealthy recluse, then start training my evil army of cats to take... Damn, I've told you too much of the plan. I am afraid I am going to have to kill you now.

Have you grown more in your life during times of harmony or times of adversity?

Conflict has always wearied me because its demands consume so much, and in chapters of peace I've had time to think.

[Alex]

When I was younger I thrived on conflict and learned a lot about people from it, to the point I could steer people in a certain direction by making a fairly simple comment in the right place and time and they will never even realise. The past couple of years I've felt the want to understand people and how they work slowing down. Overall, yeah I've definitely learned more when I've been under pressure and stress.

[Trevor]

Adversity and conflict have always been present in my life from the start, sadly.

[RCMerchant]

Conflict. I used to go to jail a lot- now I don't. Must have learned something.

How many showers/baths do you take a week?

Me, seven, sometimes more if I get dirty working  outside or something. I don't like being dirty. I also wash my hands a lot every day. People have been known to comment on how often I wash my hands, lol.

[indianasmith]

I bathe or shower every night right before bed.
I hate the feeling of going to sleep gritty or sweaty!

[Alex]

Very much depends on what I am doing. I like to have a good clean in the morning and that normally. I've been staying in hotels for extended periods, and since I've had nothing else to do, I've had 4 to 6 showers a day.

[Rev. Powell]

Every morning (usually). On rare weekends when I have nothing to do, I skip a shower--but it's rare. After all, it's a pleasure, not a chore.

Very rarely I will take a bath.

[Trevor]

I haven't had a bath since 2019 😝😉*


* My landlord's new place for me has a shower 😉🐢

[Rev. Powell]

Related shower question: do you use old-fashioned soap, or newfangled body wash?

Me, I was unaware of the popularity of body wash until just recently. I bought some to try out when my soap supply runs out.
